Which variable affects drug absorption?

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

A rich blood supply enhances absorption as it allows for efficient transport of the drug into the bloodstream. The smaller the surface area, the slower the absorption as there are fewer sites available for absorption. The more soluble the drug, the greater the absorption as it can dissolve easily and penetrate the membrane. Ionized drugs do not diffuse readily across the cell membrane as they have a charge and must have the appropriate transporter to cross the membrane.
